+ 3 c. cooked pork loin, cut in julienne strips
+ 3 c. cooked wild rice, chilled + 1 c. coarsely chopped walnuts + 1/4 c. chopped red onion + 1 c. cubed fresh pineapple, chilled (or 1 8-oz. can chunks, drained) + 1 c. sliced mushrooms + 1 (10-oz.) pkg. fresh spinach leaves, cleaned and torn + 1 c. raspberries, cleaned + 1 mango, peeled and diced + 1/3 c. raspberry vinegar + 2 Tbsp. olive oil + 2 tsp. honey + 1/4 tsp. salt What to do:
1. In small bowl stir together vinegar, olive oil, honey and salt.
2. In large bowl toss together pork, rice, walnuts, onion, pineapple and mushrooms; add vinegar mixture and toss to coat evenly. 3. Arrange spinach on large serving platter; top with pork mixture. Arrange raspberries and mango on top. * Serving Suggestions: This tangy entrée salad pairs choice fruits--pineapple, raspberries, mango--with sophisticated wild rice and fresh spinach. Three cups of cooked pork loin is a little over a pound of pork roast--leftovers from a roast would be perfect in this hearty "day two" device. * Recipe and photo courtesy of National Pork Board.
